Board of Management – Parent Nominee

The newsletter below outlines the procedures for the nomination and election of a Parent Nominee to the Board of Management.

St. Raphaela’s Primary School is extremely fortunate to have the support and commitment of eight volunteer members of the Board of Management who work together for the benefit of our school community. Our Board members bring professional and personal experience from a range of different backgrounds, and play a central role in the Management of the Primary school, guided by the Catholic ethos of St. Raphaela’s and work with a child-centered focus. The Board is responsible to the Patron, the Archbishop of Dublin.

We send special thanks to Fiona Rowley, our outgoing Parent Nominee, for the many ways in which she has supported this school during her daughter Anna’s time with us in St. Raphaela’s.

Car Park Safety

A reminder to all those who drive on our school campus, we put pupil safety first. Please ensure you’re driving at a very slow speed on campus, there are over 1000 pupils using our shared grounds during school hours.

Parking is only acceptable in designated parking spots, this may mean that you are inconvenienced by having to do a couple of laps of the car park, however parking on double yellow lines or on grass verges impedes the view of other drivers and can put our pupils at risk.

Please respect the requests of those who are patrolling our car park and ensuring our pupil safety.

Back to School Newsletter

We welcomed back 460 pupils on 29th of August, and we’re looking forward to working alongside our girls and their families for another great year in St. Raphaela’s!

Thank you to our brilliant Parent Association who have organised our Back to School Party for Saturday 15th September (weather permitting). This is a great opportunity to re-connect with old friends and to welcome new friends in to St. Raphaela’s.
